‘Marvel Universe Live!’ brings on the bad guys

While Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark may be winding down — on Broadway, at least — another superhero stage production is only getting started: Marvel and Feld Entertainment’s Marvel Universe Live!, which this morning announced more supervillains for the upcoming arena show tour.

Launching in July, Marvel Universe Live! will bring Marvel’s most iconic heroes and villains to 85 cities across North America in the show’s first two years. The live-action production will integrate a character-driven storyline with state-of-the-art special effects, pyrotechnics, aerial stunts and martial arts for what producers say will “redefine the live show experience.”
